We had so much fun at Easter! Luckily Annie was over her pink eye, and by the time we arrived in Detroit she was at least not contagious. Mom and Dad ran into one small snag though... When we arrived at Logan, we headed to Terminal E. We were both so surprised at how peaceful and calm everything was in the Northwest terminal. Well... turns out since NWA merged with Delta, NWA moved into Delta's terminal... and we were in the wrong place, D'uh! Luckily, Terminal E connects to Terminal A, although you have to take the longest pedestrian walkway ever. And since we were just going to Detroit for the long weekend, we were carry-on only. I swear we walked at least a mile, and then when we had to ditch the luggage cart through security, to get to our gate we had to walk through another long tunnel under the tarmac. Exhausting...

But it was well worth it. We arrived in Detroit and Grandpa and Grandma Drummy took us out to lunch! Annie had a blast. Then I got to go to the Tigers opening day. Well, we went to a party at the Detroit Athletic Club (DAC -- where our wedding reception was) that overlooked the game. That was a ton of fun. Meanwhile the girls (Annie and Mom) had a play-date and had a great time!

Saturday we got to meet Bea! Larry , Alex and Bea drove up from Dayton. Annie and Bea had so much fun together! Later that day we went to a brunch and got to see a lot of friends we haven't seen in quite some time. Saturday night I finished up a paper (boring) and we all had a delicious dinner. Sunday we went to Easter mass, and then all the Griffiths came over for dinner. Joan outdid herself and made one heck of a leg of lamb. Monday our flight wasn't until late afternoon, so we were able to catch our breath, pack at a leisurely pace and not rush at the airport. Annie was such a trooper the whole time. I can't believe what an easy little girl she is. She just rolls with the punches and has a smile on her face (most of the time).
